Okay place, could have been a lot better with little tweaks. A lot of sauces seemed to be very industrial, cloying, and with out much merit. Unfortunately, my seared tuna salad was over dressed, lettuce was old (spinach was turning yellow), and the tuna was obviously seared long ahead of time. For such as size of a restaurant, and dining on a Sunday, I would think some things would be done more to order.
Seating is very cramped, witnessing a couple stand up so another table could squeeze by them to their table. Generally, for the price point, a so so restaurant that could be a lot better, but with H street the way it is, there is not much competition barring one or two places.
in reference to things being done to order. The tuna is never precooked and nothing is precooked here. for a small restaurant that would not make sense so you are mistaken in that assumption. all sauces are made in house so i do not know what you are refering to about industrial etc. i apoligize if the salad was overdressed. i was the one who made the salad and i try to pick through the spinach to get any turning pieces out if there are any. There has been a problem in the spincah market with yellow leaves coming through. i cannot control mothe nature but i do try to make the best possible food in a small restaurant. Next time if you are not happy with something please speak up so the problem can be fixed while you are still in the restaurant and we can make your experience more positive.
